I think so but I also think it's been that way for decades. Ever since the war on drugs escalated, gangster mentality became urban cool and the big drug cartels became more violent, the police responded by becoming more paramilitary. Now we have this mess and the attempts to defund the police. The police need reform but the war will go on as long as lawlessness tries to win. It's already well past the point where anything but serious crime is ignored. People suck and they suck more and more.
